PulkoMandy 9fec431f60 vesa: disable the livepatching code by default
It can be enabled by putting "bios_patching true" in the VESA settings
file.

This patching does not work yet on modern hardware, but the detection
code to decide if we should try patching still says it found the
modetables. In this situation we can crash the BIOS or other weird
things can happen.

To avoid these problems, and because VESA is supposed to be the failsafe
option, disable this code by default, and let people who want to
experiment with it first enable it in the settings file.

Should fix #17633.
